Children and Families Act 2014

Wales

Part 1: Adoption and contact

39.Section 1 amends section 98(1) of the Adoption and Children Act 2002 so that regulations can make provision to facilitate contact between persons with a prescribed relationship to a person adopted before 30 December 2005 and the adopted person’s birth relatives. Regulations will be made by the Welsh Ministers in relation to Wales.

40.In relation to section 7 and Schedule 1 see paragraphs 70 to79.

41.Sections 8 and 9 of the Act amend provisions in the Children Act 1989 and the Adoption and Children Act 2002 which deal with contact between a child in the care of the local authority and their birth family and certain other people. Family proceedings are non-devolved matters and so the provisions relating to these apply to Wales. Adoption policy and functions of local authorities in relation to adoption are matters devolved to the Welsh Government and the provisions which relate to local authorities’ duties in relation to contact in the Children Act 1989 (other than section 7(2)) do not apply to Wales.

Nodiadau Esboniadol

Testun a grëwyd gan yr adran o’r llywodraeth oedd yn gyfrifol am destun y Ddeddf i esbonio beth mae’r Ddeddf yn ceisio ei wneud ac i wneud y Ddeddf yn hygyrch i ddarllenwyr nad oes ganddynt gymhwyster cyfreithiol. Cyflwynwyd Nodiadau Esboniadol ym 1999 ac maent yn cyd-fynd â phob Deddf Gyhoeddus ac eithrio Deddfau Adfeddiannu, Cronfa Gyfunol, Cyllid a Chyfnerthiad.

Asesiadau Effaith

Impact Assessments generally accompany all UK Government interventions of a regulatory nature that affect the private sector, civil society organisations and public services. They apply regardless of whether the regulation originates from a domestic or international source and can accompany primary (Acts etc) and secondary legislation (SIs). An Impact Assessment allows those with an interest in the policy area to understand:

  • Why the government is proposing to intervene;
  • The main options the government is considering, and which one is preferred;
  • How and to what extent new policies may impact on them; and,
  • The estimated costs and benefits of proposed measures.
